Good Day 

 

Is there a range extender for the cameras on the Arlo Pro system?

No. Only moving the base or using multiple bases will be useful.

As a PS to avbove... remember that the Arlo and Arlo PRO cameras only talk to the base ( while the Q cameras will talk to a normal wifi expander as they link to your home wifi )...To expand coverage area of a base you must either centrally locate it to the cameras or add another base and sync the closest cameras to each base.

 As Someone else suggested to me I used a network extender and connected the base station to it enhancing my signal to the cameras.

It's a really good tip for if your wifi router isn't central to where the cameras are located!
